Hi Franklin...

You have asked whether anyone would know if I was "selling" my TFS.

The question is intellectually vacuous to anyone that comprehends the nature of my relationship with my clients, those for whom I have a fiduciary responsibility. If I am selling shares, I *can not* tell you, for to do so would be a breach of my contractual relationship with the people who actually pay me.

If you would like to become a client, Franklin, I will (of course) reserve that right to protect *you*, too.

I haven't bothered to check the old posts you have noted, as they are irrelevant to the issues at hand. As is usual, it appears that you have nothing to add to this discussion in the way of analysis, so your diversions from the main topic are irrelevant and a waste of time.

When you come back with something to say about TFS's competitive position, its value as an ongoing concern, its earnings prospects, or even the chance of analytic coverage, those areas are sufficiently germane to be entitled to some discussion. And, when you exhibit some talent in that regard, I will be happy to engage you in repartee.

But, it appears to me that all you are interested in doing is a little muckraking. If that is what floats your boat, have fun. The internet belongs to no one.

But do not delude yourself with the thought that you actually have contributed something to the discussion. I have published here for ages, and am accountable for my opinions. Sometimes I am right, sometimes I am wrong. The markets are not perfectly predictable, and those that choose to have *others* do their homework for them get in value exactly what they have paid for the privilege.

I can't think of a single thing that I owe *you*. All my efforts are directed toward the benefit of my clients, whether I am castigating a management for inadequate disclosure (which, though you may not care about it, seems to be changing for the better at TFS), or pointing out when they make strides to better the situation, the ultimate goal is always the same.

I work for the people who pay me.

So, rather than ask what I have done for you and the rest of the people who inhabit this "thread," , why not hire me? Surely you can afford it.

Or, as it appears from your recent post, do you expect to get something of value for nothing?
